The oldest European settlement on Staten Island, Tompkinsville was also the first place to offer ferry service to Manhattan. At the heart of this neighborhood is Tompkinsville Park, founded in the 1930’s - and recently renovated and improved - offering an oasis for commuters and residents to enjoy. A large boulder and plaque mark the former location of the spring where explorers visited; it’s the oldest historical site on Staten Island.
Ideally located for commuters, Tompkinsville residents can utilize the train, the St. George Terminal of the Staten Island Ferry (just one stop away), numerous express and local buses to get to the city and around the island.
